Baby otters are among the cutest of critters, and the Beardsley Zoo has announced the birth of not one but four new pups!

The pack was born on March 23 and underwent exams a few days later on March 29 to ensure they were each healthy and growing.

"River otters are extremely active and playful animals, so it will be a great deal of fun for guests to watch the four pups grow," zoo director Gregg Dancho said in a statement on the zoo's website.

"This is a great time of year to visit the zoo and witness the new life that spring brings — whether it's new baby animals or the beautiful flowers that are in bloom," he added.
